About this episode

On this week’s episode of the Joy of Football Podcast, Neil and Martin discuss the the time Martin commentated an England game and then a Champions League final just a few days apart, Neil's trip with Chelsea tp Barcelona in the days before Torres went round Valdés (and Gary Neville made a noise we can't describe), the OUTRAGEOUS price that some Matchday Tickets are being sold at, and more.

We also have our usual 'Three of the Best', Martin's Letter from the Gantry is on Birmingham City, and we introduce you to the incredible work being done by Inter Legends, and how you can get involved.
